Oil leak

Welderup · May 7, 2017

Getting an oil leak that looks like it's coming from the back running down the top of the transmission. The valley is bone dry and it's definitely oil not coolant any ideas where to start. Trucks a 2013 with ******s.

Boost tubes.
How many miles on the rig?

This.
It's common.
Coolant fitting on turbo known to leak as well.
Not a hard fix, checkout YouTube.

You'll need a Lisle 22930 3/8" Low Profile Disconnect to release the fitting. With out it it can be a pita.

With only 47k, first thing I'd do is take it to the dealer. Weight loss or not, shouldn't affect oil fittings on the turbo.

13 could be out of warranty.
